It is indeed quite a good film.

Too bad Super had to fuck it all up.

I maintain that Super will get better once they stop adapting movies. Until then, my bet is still in place that if it doesn't improve, I'll eat my hat and film it.

Have you any dreams you'd like to sell?

At least Super made the God form look more impressive than it did in the movie.

True.

It also removed the Pilaf gang. I liked them.

It is a goddamn crime to remove that beautifully cringe-inducing moment.

It also removed every character trait that made me originally like Beerus.

It's still better than GT at least.

Well it started off with Goku getting turned into a kid, so you be the judge.

[up]

Yeah, that's one rare positive.

Still doesn't make it better.

GT started out really bad then became sorta-kinda decent-ish?

You cannot firmly grasp the true form of Squidward's technique!

Sorta-kinda-decentish best describes the rest of it, yes. Super Saiyan 4 (even though I hated the design) and Golden Ape were good. Baby (even though he was a ripoff of Hatchiyack) had a lot of potential, as did Super 17 and Omega Shenron.

What sucked was how there was so little logic and plot holes around that dragged it all down.

I wouldn't really know, I've seen like an hour total of GT.

[up][up]It was originally released on home video cassettes in Japan on August 6, 1993, between episodes 1995 and 1996, as Official Visual Guides to the Famicom game Dragon Ball Z Gaiden: Saiyajin Zetsumetsu Keikaku. The OVA has since been re-released on DVD in Japan as an extra feature of the Dragon Box collection in 2003. http://dragonball.wikia.com/wiki/Dragon_Ball:_Plan_to_Eradicate_the_Saiyans

And GT aired in 1997. I googled that right before I posted that Baby is more or less a ripoff of Hatchiyack. The biggest difference is that Baby is a biological parasite and Hatchiyack is a machine.

I mean, Dragon Ball has a history of copying scripts and characters for the movies. Lord Slug is a knockoff of Demon King Piccolo, Janemba is a knockoff of Buu, Super Android 13 is a knockoff of Cell and the Androids, both of Cooler's forms are knockoffs of Freeza and his cyborg form, Turles is a knockoff of Vegeta, etc.

That depends on how much you wanna stretch the term "knockoff"

Don't forget how every early Quirky Miniboss Squad wails on Gohan and Krillin until Piccolo comes, beats them up, and then he's taken out by the Big Bad, who fights Goku, who wins with some crazy technique.
